How Alchemist and Huskar perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Alchemist and Huskar win 42.92% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 240 matches.
Gifting an Aghanim's Scepter from Alchemist gives Huskar's Life Break a taunt, which can be a powerful tool for picking off a key enemy. In theory, this helps Huskar's mid-game aggression. The problem is that both heroes want to play a similar tempo, peaking early and dominating that same mid-game window. Alchemist needs time and space to farm up, while Huskar wants to be fighting constantly. These goals can clash, with Alchemist needing to farm while Huskar needs backup. Whether they can find a balance between Huskar's aggression and Alchemist's farm timings often decides the game.
